Happy 30 to my amazing, beautiful wife! I can’t wait to see what this next decade has in store for you, and I’m glad I get a front-row seat for all of it. Don’t go to crazy on the mocktails today, and I love you very much! Unreal weekend at Ford Nationals. For the first time ever, the truck took first in its class. Honestly, I never imagined I’d own something worthy of a Best in Class award, so this one means a lot. My 2025 recap aka an excuse to finally post some wedding pictures! I finally married the love of my life. Some people think we rushed into it, but I decided 10 years of being together was just long enough. I picked up a side-by-side and took some amazing trips. I took a Texas trip with 9 of my best friends that I’ll be talking about for years, started a new job I’m genuinely proud of, and got constant reminders of how lucky I am to have the family I do. I don’t know what I did to deserve so many great people in my life, but I’m grateful. 2026, good luck topping this year.

About

I’m Chris, and ReelBuiltCo is my way of documenting my journey to build a life the way I think it should be lived. I want to earn my life, work with my hands, build things that last, take better care of the land, and make time for the people who matter. I want to spend more time hunting, fishing, exploring the outdoors, staying active, and learning how to be more self-sufficient. I’m not an expert—hell, most of what I write about, I’m learning myself. ReelBuiltCo is where I share the projects, lessons, adventures, and mistakes along the way.
